Guest guest Posted April 27, 2004 Report Share Posted April 27, 2004 I'm really not sure if I have pancreatitis or not. I have been having midepigastric pain like spasms off and on for 2 months. Sonogram and CT scan and Endoscopy were all normal. The only thing abornmal was my lipase was slightly elevated at 68, normal range is 0-57. Two weeks later when I had it checked it was back to normal. I have a history of drinking off and on for about 5 years. I was a pretty heavy binge drinker. I have stopped drinking entirely for 2 months, ever since the pain started. Tomorrow I am going for a Hida Scan, and if that is normal then an MRCP. Has anyone had experience like this? Also, I recently purchased some digestive enzymes and they do seem to help. What does that mean? Any advice or direction would be greatly appreciated. Also, what type of doctor should I see? I am currently seeing a GastroEnterologist. Thanks, Debbie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
